Expensive?
Yes a bit expensive maybe. It depends what you compare it to and how much you really want a 1/72 Breguet IV. Export price is £15.66. You can buy a Roden Gotha for £13.60 which is definitely better value. A Special Hobby Lloyd CV is only £10.20 which is good value (if you want a Lloyd CV). An Aeroclub Short 184 will cost you £15.74 - virtually the same. The Pegasus 2 seater kits sell for £11.91 which is better value but you get only one decal option with those. Compared to resin kits of course it is not too bad. An Ardpol DH9 will cost you £16.98, or for a Halberstadt CLII you would pay £19.15. A Czech Master Resin kit of a Hansa Brandenburg W12 will cost £21.87.
Happy Modelling James |

I have to agree with others. Cost is directly related to HOW MUCH YOU WANT THE KIT!

Yes, you are right, but.........
I'd like to remember that it was a plastic kit. Maybe I'm ready to pay that money for resin... Is the plastic good enouhg to pay for? There are only pic of the box and dec. |

The usual prices problem ...
Hello!
Yesterday, without knowing about about this thread, I stumbled across these kits (Breguet Bre 14 A2 French Service and Breguet Bre 14 B2 French Service) in the "Modellbaustudio Rhein-Ruhr" in Essen/Germany. I was really happy to see this famous aircraft as a "normal/injection moulded" plastic kit!  Then Mr. Schorsch showed me another kit of this series: the Breguet Bre 14 Foreign Service but I decided to buy the 2 French versions. The price was more than acceptable for me: I paid 16,98 Euros for a very nice plastic kit with several accessories.  I compared the price of Hannants (18,40 Pounds = 26,85 Euros) with the sum I paid - and it seems that their price is really a bit overpriced. At least I saved nearly 10 Euros and could have spend them in suitable colours for the Breguet. But there is still a considerable problem: on the box you can read "limited edition"! Do I have get more of them within a short time before they are all sold out?  .

I visited Flander's Contest at Hoboken (Antwerp) last week. They were selling them at almost every stand. Average price was €17,-... I was in doubt if I should buy one, but try to stick to 1/48 scale. So I am eagerly waiting for Roden's release of this month.
Greetings, Nico |
